Add user alerts and check on node digging
- Bump to version 1.2.2
 - Add `metatools.alert_users` which sends the string passed as argument
   to all players currently operating on nodes
 - Register a dignode callback in which we alert users about players
   trying to dig operated nodes, or open nodes in general. Only node
   operated by a person different from the person digging are blocked
 - Add `metatools.get_context_from_pos`. It receives a table, but does
   no assertions (yet?)
 - Move `playerlocks` over to `metatools.playerlocks` for similar
   reasons to why we moved `nodelock`
 - Create field `success` for meta_exec, a function run when the command
   is successful; it receives the executed function's parameters and its
   output (status, msg) as arguments
 - Update /meta help's message
 - Fix instances of `contexts` not replaced by `metatools.contexts`
 - Assert that the context id is correct upon running `metatools.show`

Minetest mod metatools ######################

A mod inspired by mgl512's itemframe issue Version : 1.2.2

Authors

  • LeMagnesium / Mg / ElectronLibre : Source code writer
  • Paly2 / Palige : Contributor for the source code
  • Ataron : Texture creater

Purpose

This mod's aim is to provide a way for admins to navigate through any (ok, not ignores) nodes on the map, and see values of its metadatas at any of their stratum.

Media

"metatools_stick.png" by Ataron (CC-BY-NC-SA)

Todo

  • Rewrite the table stocking : a variable containing a copy of the global table returned by :to_table(), on which we would work, and a save command to apply it on the node

Special thanks

  • mgl512 (Le_Docteur) for its locked itemframe which gave me the idea of a tool allowing to see/edit metadatas
  • Ataron who created the stick's texture
  • palige who agreed to test the mod for its first release, and contributed to the last version

Command tutorial

  • Soon to come, please refer to /meta help until then

Node metadatas look like this :

		0	1		2		3		...
		Node/

			+- 		fields
			|		|
